April Showers Bring May Specials: News From Bernina Lady
Spring has finally sprung and to celebrate the new season Bernina Canada is having a Spring Sale (you can see our May promotions posted here). I have been out and about a lot this month and it certainly is nice to know that weather will not play a factor in my travels. Sande Gunning, River Gallery, my host store in New Brunswick and I had a marvelous time at The Saint John City Market the beginning of April and we thank all who stopped by to look at the machines and at Sande’s delicious selection of fabrics.
Having this type of dealership has allowed me to visit each store on a regular basis and service all of our Bernina customers. Each store owner has lent their time, their classroom space and help with the advertising to let everyone know that the Bernina’s will be in your area.
This forum gives me a wonderful opportunity to let you know what is going on at each store. The weather is marvelous and all quilter’s will travel for miles to see beautiful fabric and talk with other quilters. This is the perfect time to remind you that if your local quilt shop does not have something in stock that you may need that each and every Shop Owner welcomes the opportunity to order it in for you. Don’t hesitate to ask. All of the Shops and owners are there to help you, their customer.
Something new
Sande Gunning at River Gallery in Glenwood, New Brunswick has two fabric clubs for you. One is well under way and there is still room for more members. She has a wool club and each member receives a special parcel of all the new selections several times per year.
For Bali Lovers
If you love those gorgeous hand-dyed, hand-painted and batiked fabrics; you are going to be thrilled with Sande’s expansion of these lines. Many of you have indicated that you would be interested in a Bali Club. This will be launched very shortly. If you would like to be part of the Bali Club and receive details once they become available or if you would like to sign up for the Wool Club please contact Sande Gunning at sande@nb.sympatico.ca or call 1-888-468-9004 or (506) 468-9004 local.
As well, starting July 2008 Sande will carry a selection of Bernina accessories for you New Brunswick girls. Sande and I are committed to bringing Bernina to New Brunswick and are going to have a machine there as well so that you may travel locally to see Bernina products and receive brouchures. We are very excited about this.
Bargain Fabric Outlet in Bedeque PEI have opened up a Home decor gallery. Grand opening was this week. I got to preview the gallery while there over the weekend and there are some beautiful rooms decorated with drapes, duvets, slip covers and a cottage room. It shows us what we can do or have done for us in the Home Decor setting. Delicious.
